Choudary's release from
HMP Frankland, Co Durham, where he is understood to be in a "separation
centre", will come halfway through his 5½-year sentence. Next week marks the
first anniversary of the London Bridge terrorist attack, masterminded by one of
his former acolytes. Eight people died and 48 were injured in the June 3
atrocity. Anti-terrorism officials at Scotland Yard are concerned Choudary's
release will heighten community tension, given his history of radicalising
young Muslims and agitating far-right groups.
